Try the following registry fix
go to START - Run and type in
regedit

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}]
"UpperFilters"=
"LowerFilters"=

Deleting the values for the upper and lower filters

Be sure to backup up that section of the registry first

Try going to 'start', *right* click on 'my computer', then 'properties',
then into your 'device manager', and uninstall your cd rom. Then re-start
your computer...windows should find it and provide the correct drivers.
